Abstract
We have excited two types of superconducting coils having same specifications. One is made of DFRP (Dyneema(R) fiber reinforced plastic) bobbins which expands during cooling process from room temperature to liquid helium temperature. The other is made of GFRP (glass fiber reinforced plastic) bobbins which contract during the cooling process. Firstly, we have numerically estimated changes of winding tensions of the two types of the coils by the cooling down. And then, training behaviors of the DFRP and GFRP coils wound with the same winding tension at room temperature were measured. Influence of quench currents in the training quenches and the number of quenches to reach to the maximum currents on the winding tensions at liquid helium temperature is systematically discussed.
